tery-TwO Physicians Arrested.
DANBURY, Aug. 25.-An autopsy was held
last evening regarding the cause of death of
Miss Agnes Ryan. This morning an inquest
was begun at the City hall. The evidence
thus far given tends to show that the woman
was in delicate condition and that someone
had attempted to perform an operation, but
had failed in the attempt.
DR.. Barber testified that death was caused
from the operation and the abnormal condi.
ton of the liver. Further investigation led
to the arrest OF Drs. G. G. and Fl. K. Rich.
ards, who are charged with committing the
crime.
The Drs. Richards are father and son and
have heretofore enjoyed the confidence of the
community. They will be given hearing
without delay.
The police are now searching for the men
who went riding with Miss Ryan last Sunday
afternoon. The identity of her betrayer is
suspected and he will undoubtedly be arrest
ed. He is a well known young man, and his
arrest cannot fail to add to the excitement at
present existing.

In your report Of the laying of the corner
stone of All Saints chapel yesterday after

Pauls. This is a mistake. All Saints mis-
sion was started under the auspices of all the
Episcopal parishes of the city, and while a
large part of its support has come from the
larger parishes of Trinity and St. Paul's, it
is wrong to speak of it's belonging to any one
